Chapter 8 : A Woman Who Can't Be Tamed

  • Su Zhong was startled.
  • He quickly approached and touched her nose to check her breath.
  • She was breathing.
  • His face relaxed slightly, but he looked indecisively at his wife and daughter, asking, "What should we do? Should we take her to the hospital?"
  • "Dad! Why would we take her to the hospital!"
  • Su Miaomiao rubbed her sore wrist and glared angrily at Jiang Yue, who had fainted. She said indignantly, "Do you think we should pay for her medical expenses? Jiang Yue has gone too far!"
  • "Miaomiao is right!"
  • Zhang Fenghong already disliked Jiang Yue, and now that she had laid hands on her precious daughter, she had an idea. "Why don't we just throw her out? Last time, when she was bitten by a dog, someone still came to her rescue!"
  • Under their persuasion, Su Zhong really threw the unconscious Jiang Yue out of the house.
  • After a while.
  • A car stopped by the roadside and someone carried the unconscious Jiang Yue into the car.
  • ...
  • The warmth surrounding her made Jiang Yue furrow her brows.
  • She opened her eyes in confusion and realized that she was in a hotel room, instantly becoming alert.
  • The memories of that night rushed into her mind, and her face turned pale.
  • She immediately checked her clothes.
  • Thankfully, nothing was amiss.
  • Relieved, she felt a headache and couldn't help but cry out in pain, "Ouch."
  • Someone nearby heard the sound and hurried over.
  • Seeing Jiang Yue awake, they breathed a sigh of relief and placed a cup beside her.
  • "You're awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
  • Jiang Yue looked up, and her wary expression disappeared when she saw the person's face. She tightly gripped the edge of the blanket.
  • It was Qin Weisheng.
  • "Thank you for helping me again. I've caused you trouble."
  • It seemed that every time she saw him, she was in a sorry state.
  • Qin Weisheng smiled lightly and handed her the warm water, speaking softly, "It's okay, as long as you're fine."
  • Facing Jiang Yue's confusion about his appearance, Qin Weisheng explained that he happened to pass by and saw her fainting, so he brought her to the hotel.
  • He already knew about Jiang Yue's situation and knew that she didn't want to go back to the Shen family.
  • Sending her directly to the Gu family was also inappropriate, so he had no choice but to choose a hotel.
  • As he spoke, Qin Weisheng couldn't control the tenderness in his eyes.
  • In fact, ever since he saw her after she moved into the Shen family, he had developed different feelings for this innocent and strong girl.
  • He had been waiting for her to grow up, unaware that she was not living well in the Shen family.
  • Thinking of this, he regretted his previous subtle behavior.
  • Jiang Yue forced a smile.
  • She was very grateful for Qin Weisheng's help. Her current situation was extremely difficult, and she had no way out.
  • "Mr. Qin, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know where I am now." She smiled bitterly.
  • She knew that the Shen family wouldn't care about her, let alone the Gu family.
  • In the eyes of the Gu family, she was just a tool for reproduction.
  • Looking at the lost Jiang Yue, Qin Weisheng's warm eyes flickered with a hint of pity.
  • He wanted to be the source of warmth for her, replacing the cup of warm water. His fingers twitched.
  • Jiang Yue lowered her gaze and didn't notice. She wanted to put the cup down, but it was a bit far away. She instinctively stretched out her arm, revealing a slender white wrist.
  • "Let me help you."
  • Qin Weisheng instinctively reached out his hand, but he saw Jiang Yue suddenly put down the cup and cover herself with the blanket, her eyes filled with caution.
  • She was grateful for Qin Weisheng's help, but she was also afraid.
  • Jiang Yue tightly held the blanket, whispering, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin..."
  • "It's okay, it's okay."
  • Qin Weisheng replied, speaking to Jiang Yue but also to himself.
  • The similar furnishings in the hotel made Jiang Yue feel uncomfortable all over.
  • She sat on the bed with a man beside her.
  • Although she didn't think Qin Weisheng was that kind of person, she couldn't control the fear in her heart.
  • The images from that day kept replaying in her mind, unable to be erased.
  • Her voice trembled, "Mr. Qin, can you please take me back to the Gu family?"
  • The Gu family?
  • Qin Weisheng furrowed his brows slightly, but he didn't refuse Jiang Yue's request. He softly agreed.
  • The car slowly stopped outside the Gu family's gate.
  • Qin Weisheng got out of the car and opened the door, standing aside without reaching out to help. However, his gaze never left Jiang Yue. He knew she was weak and was afraid she might fall.
  • The moment Jiang Yue got out of the car, she felt a bit dizzy, but she held herself steady. She didn't dare to have any contact with Qin Weisheng, afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings and implicating him.
  • But things didn't go as planned.
  • "Jiang Yue!"
  • Suddenly, a cold reprimand sounded from not far away, followed by the sound of a wheelchair rolling.
  • When Jiang Yue heard the cold reprimand, she instinctively trembled, a sign of fear.
  • She hurriedly turned to look and indeed saw Gu Jinyan's gloomy face.
  • This fickle woman!
  • Gu Jinyan stared coldly at the two people not far away.
  • He thought she had left the Gu family without any regard, thinking it was a matter of life and death. Who would have thought she was out fooling around with another man!
  • How shameless!
  • And now she dared to bring someone to the Gu family's doorstep, wasn't she trying to let everyone in the Gu family know that he, Gu Jinyan, had been cuckolded?!
  • "Jiang Yue, how long are you going to stand there fooling around with another man!"
  • Gu Jinyan scolded in a low voice, frightening Jiang Yue to quickly approach.
  • Qin Weisheng couldn't help but become angry. How did this person treat Jiang Yue!
  • "Mr. Gu, Miss Jiang and I don't have the kind of relationship you're talking about. Please show some respect to your wife." He tried to defend her, his gaze firm.
  • But these words only added fuel to the fire. Gu Jinyan's sinister gaze fell on them, and he sneered, "Look, there's a man standing up for you!"
  • With each word he spoke, Jiang Yue became more afraid.
  • She looked at Qin Weisheng pleadingly, "Mr. Qin, this has nothing to do with you. Please leave."
  • Continuing like this would only make things more complicated.
  • Qin Weisheng opened his mouth, but under Jiang Yue's pleading gaze, he couldn't say anything.
  • He really wanted to stand in front of Jiang Yue, but she didn't need him to.
  • Helpless, he had no choice but to leave.
  • Seeing him leave, Jiang Yue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
  • Gu Jinyan narrowed his eyes, looking at Jiang Yue's relieved expression after surviving a disaster, and an inexplicable anger surged within him. Did this woman even know her own identity?!
  • She cared so much about that wild man!
  • "Since you're so reluctant to leave him, then go find him. Our Gu family can't tolerate a woman like you who can't be tamed!"
